Before going into the review of the place I’d like to preface it that a lot of the issues we faced is due to the building itself and not because of Nattaya. Nattaya has been super accommodating, quick to respond throughout our stay and is really helpful.
PROS:
- The place is located quite close to Nana BTS which is a few stops to the shopping district.
- The place was spacious and decorated nicely with a large comfy bed.
CONS:
- What is not informed is the place sits at the edge of a red light district which may feel unsafe for some (take Nattaya’s advice to walk via Soi-6 instead of Soi-4 as that street is wider, cleaner and away from the sex tourists).
- When we first arrived the bathroom wasn’t very clean (bathtub drain covers and shower curtains were slimy).
- The bathroom had a sewage smell daily which we had to buy products to alleviate it.
- We had to deal with roaches from the first day starting with 2-3 baby roaches and gradually bigger ones. We didn’t keep any food on the counters or fridge, we tossed all food in the external garbage room immediately after eating and even cleaned the table/counter with alcohol. There were still roaches in the kitchen and worse were the few small ones we found in the bedroom!! Nattaya was quick to reply and informed the building management which would fumigate the apartment but we didn’t want to be around for that.
We really wanted to try and stay longer but we didn’t want to deal with a pest infestation daily, especially after spending extra to buy products for the place (like spare bath towels cause we only had 1 set each, scents for the rooms, alcohol to clean surfaces, toilet paper cause only 2 rolls were provided, vinegar to descale and clean the electric kettle). So we moved to another place.
If you want a cheap and convenient place to stay I guess this place is alright, as long as the pest issue is resolved.
